Our Verdict
XGIMI HORIZON
Hisense M2 Pro
The Hisense M2 Pro is better than the XGIMI HORIZON overall. It offers pixel-shift 4k resolution, producing a sharper image than the XGIMI's native 1080p resolution. It's also more colorful and has better image depth, resulting in a noticeable improvement in overall image quality. On the other hand, the XGIMI's one-axis gimbal makes it easier to align with your screen, and its built-in handle makes it easier to carry.
